The NFL Just Perfectly Trolled Their Male Fans Over Taylor Swift
The "Getaway Car" singer announced her 12th album, "The Life of a Showgirl," on her boyfriend's podcast, New Heights.
Soooo, in case you forgot, some football fans can be bitter about her going to games.
Like, she was booed at the Super Bowl.
And the NFL Instagram account always has comments like this:
Well, the NFL just posted about Taylor on their Instagram, and fans pointed out that they are clearly trolling their audience:
Yup, the thumbnail just says "It's more of me."
For those who want more context, in the clip, she says, "As we all know, you guys have a lot of male sports fans that listen to your podcast. I think we all know that if there's one thing that male sports fans want to see in their spaces and on their screens. It's more of me."
Needless to say, her fans are lovin' it.
Knowing her, there's probably an Easter egg or 24 in that post.
I guess we'll have to wait and see...

This is the USA TODAY Sports NFL newsletter, 4th and Monday. If this newsletter isn't already getting conveniently delivered to your inbox, click here to subscribe. USA TODAY Sports is now on Bluesky! Give us a follow for more of our NFL content. In a big moment for Swifties and NFL fans alike, pop icon Taylor Swift made her much-anticipated debut on the Kelce brothers' podcast, "New Heights." The pop icon revealed some details about her new album and talked some football. Well, it was maybe a bit light on the football banter. Taylor did share plenty of stories on the podcast hosted by her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, and his brother, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce. Swift discussed her evolution into a football fan (and what her "welcome to the NFL" moment was), her early dates with Travis Kelce and how Andy Reid vouched for his tight end to Taylor's father (the two are friends!). ➤ Jacob Camenker provided the winners (wingman Andy Reid) and losers (NFL fans hoping for football talk) of Swift's "New Heights" appearance. ➤ Nancy Armour wrote about how unbothered Taylor Swift is by the Dads, Brads and Chads. HOT READS 🎯 The best NFL reads from USA TODAY and our Sports Network: 🏈 Of all people, Michael Penix Jr. found himself at the bottom of the pile during one of the scuffles that broke out on Wednesday when the Atlanta Falcons and Tennessee Titans hooked up for a joint practice. 🏈 Cincinnati Bengals rookie defensive end Shemar Stewart committed a big training camp no-no on Wednesday, and it ignited a scuffle. 🏈 Cleveland Browns rookie QB Shedeur Sanders left Wednesday's practice with an oblique injury. He's listed as day-to-day. 🏈 Jarrett Bell talked to former NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith, who has a new book coming out and plenty of thoughts about what lies ahead in the league's potential labor war. 🏈 After the NFL banned his preferred helmet model, Aaron Rodgers has to wear a new style … and he's not happy about it. 😡 🏈 A new Netflix documentary about Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys premieres Aug. 19. Scooby Axson got a sneak peek at the eight-part series. Hopefully it's better than the team's 2021 appearance on HBO's "Hard Knocks," when the most memorable thing that happened was a drone tour of the team facility. 📺 FANTASY ESSENTIALS ✨ This is a crucial time in terms of preparing for fantasy football domination.

The NFL season will kick off at Lincoln Financial Field just three short weeks from Thursday. To celebrate 21 days until the new season, we're continuing with a classic countdown … the top five all-time NFL players to wear the No. 21: Honorable mention: Charles Woodson — Wore No. 24 for most of his career, but No. 21 during his time with the Green Bay Packers, during which he earned 2009 NFL Defensive Player of the Year honors and won a Super Bowl. ON THIS DAY IN NFL HISTORY 📜 On this day in 1959, the American Football League was founded in Chicago. Charter memberships were awarded to Dallas, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Minneapolis-Saint Paul and New York. The ownership group from the Twin Cities left for the NFL and that team became the Vikings. The AFL is the last rival pro football league to successfully challenge the NFL, forcing a merger between the two leagues and spawning the unofficial national holiday that is the Super Bowl. NFL CLASSICS 🏈: FROM THE YOUTUBE ALGORITHM 🎞️ This is where we reprise some NFL lore and recall classic, memorable moments from yesteryear. The fine folks at the NFL Throwback channel on YouTube completed what I can only assume was an ambitious offseason project that landed on the video platform recently and has been omnipresent in my algorithm ever since. I finally hit "Play" on this video (which is more than five hours long!) this week and will be watching it piecemeal between now and the end of the 2025 NFL season (maybe?!?). This opus of every team's starting quarterbacks — which goes back as far as 1950 for the teams that old — is a real timewaster (but you'll gain a lot of football knowledge along the way!).

Taylor Swift Pokes Fun At Travis Kelce's Brother Jason For Obsessing Over His 'Beer' When He Met Royal Family
Taylor Swift had a laugh at the expense of her potential brother-in-law, Jason Kelce, while making her debut appearance on his podcast New Heights on Wednesday. During the nearly two hour-long episode, Swift spoke about how Travis made his on-stage debut with her for her Eras Tour shows at Wembley Stadium. 'Wasn't this the week that I got to watch Jason meet the Royal Family?' Swift recalled, before she and Travis, proceeded to poke fun at Jason for his neurotic concerns about his demeanour before meeting Prince William and two of his children, Princess Charlotte and Prince George. The hitmaker ended up immortalising the performances with selfies featuring the Prince of Wales — who was celebrating his birthday at the concerts. 'I knew you were serious when I was like, "Jason, do you want to go meet [them]?"' she continued, and Travis chimed in to narrate his older brother's reaction. 'He was like, "What do I do with my beer?"' the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said. Swift played off her boyfriend, adding: 'I watched him have this moment with his beer where he's just like, "But I want to take it. But I know that I probably should not take it." 'I watched this happen and it was kind of the most amazing [thing],' she said with a laugh. Jason then confirmed that Swift was 'exactly' right about his tortured mental process at the time. 'If I don't have my beer, what do I do with this hand now? Or am I just, like, being authentic by having the beer? I would normally have the beer. Wouldn't they want me to be myself?' Swift said as she mocked Jason's mental back-and-forth. 'I'm watching you say that in your head,' she clarified, adding that it was a 'fantastic' show for her. 'I'll always remember that.' Travis added, after meeting the Royals, that Prince William was 'the coolest motherf***er.' He added that he didn't realise Prince George and Princess Charlotte would also be there, but they turned out to be an 'absolute delight to meet' as well.

This Week in Sports Trivia: August 14, 2025
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were back in the news this week, as the pop star appeared on the 'New Heights' podcast hosted by Kelce and his brother Jason. The appearance was a long time coming. Remember that it was on that same podcast back in 2023 that Travis shared a story about trying to meet Swift. It wasn't much longer before news surfaced that they were dating, causing two wildly diverse pop culture worlds to collide and nearly breaking the internet. The rest was history. Advertisement Wednesday's show was partly an acknowledgment of that journey, and partly a means to promote Swift's upcoming album, 'The Life of a Showgirl.' But mostly it was just good old-fashioned entertainment. We're sure you watched, so maybe you'll have a leg up on at least one of the questions on this week's quiz — but there's a whole lot more in store for you. So enjoy the quiz, and while you're at it, take some time to play our daily Connections: Sports Edition!
